Woody Allen dealt with a similar premise a lot more playfully in his 1973 film Sleeper, in which a futuristic tyrant is killed by a bomb blast, leaving nothing behind but his nose -- a nose that his followers hope to clone into a new leader.

• 伍迪·艾伦在他1973年拍摄的电影《沉睡者》中对类似假设的处理则要诙谐得多。 在这部电影中，一个未来的独裁者被炸弹炸死，只留下一个鼻子。 他的追随者希望用这个鼻子克隆出一个新的领袖。
